Trip Status Assignment in SAP

Use

The trip status defines the current state of the trip and controls how trip processing is to continue with regard to trip approval and accounting.

You can use this function to set an approval status and an accounting status for a trip.

Via Trip status assignment, you define which of the business procedures within the recording, approval and accounting process are allowed for the relevant trip.

Integration

The assignment of a trip status is a requirement for saving the trip.

Features

You can use this function to initially assign, check or change the trip status for a trip. The trip status that you can set depends on your authorizations. The first time you save a trip, the system proposes a trip status as a default value, which you can change depending on your authorizations. When you save the trip the second time, the system uses the last trip status stored in the database as a default value.

Activities

To assign the trip status, you can use two basic methods within the Save trip function. One method is to choose the Save trip function. The system checks to see if you still need to perform the Trip status assignment function. The other method is to choose the Trip status assignment function before choosing the Save trip function.
